What magic incantation are you using? My OBS either crashes with the ffmpeg setting or uses software enc, and is always blurry. Firefox does all video and audio enc+dec on CPU. Am on all-AMD NixOS and so far gave up on any hw accel for media.

Peeeeck.... neeeeeck!!!
Enjoyed the article but augh that sticky banner at the top that follows as I scroll took up 30% of my reading space. Gave up halfway through to enable reader mode on Firefox mobile...
Awesome! Maybe I can finally switch to using it, though OBS settings are quite confusing.
omg I totally accidentally enabled this
I'd bother removing it but it's kinda funny to get an email reprimanding me when I ctrl+c out of a sudo command I mistyped, and maybe it will serve as a warning if it gets compromised :p
Bravo la France ! Here's to hoping more cities follow suit :)
Very cool! Added the RSS.
I actively avoid any and all US products, including food. I hope others do as well. So long as we keep origin attestations, I am not sure they will sell as much as expected.
I did use Feishin for a while, it's an excellent music player but unfortunately not a native program. I might switch back to it from Tauon though, as actually playing the whole song before going to the next is a pretty nice upgrade hehe
It looks really good indeed, and I don't mind at all to pay for apps (I pay for FairEmail)... however it is very strange for me to add a nonfree app to the list I use every day... everything else is open source.
I currently host Navidrome, which has an okay web player. On Android I use "Tempo" (though it is unmaintained) to connect to it, and on Linux I use Tauon (though it has very poor playback). I could not find a native Linux client that is not buggy unfortunately, so I'm also on the lookout for better solutions!
I'm not familiar with the device you are talking about but every client I tried supports MPRIS, which are the regular media controls that can be used via the playerctl command, so you should be able to hook things up that way.
I had a ROG Zephyrus G14 "AMD Advantage" laptop with a AMD GPU in it that suffered from these "ring" crashes (according to dmesg). They came and went every few months sometimes with several weeks between crashes. When it would happen, audio kept playing but the display was frozen (can't even go to tty) and I had to force poweroff. The crash could also happen on Windows (I installed it just to test repro) but Windows handled restarting the GPU so it wouldn't freeze unlike Linux. The conclusion, at least in the community of people with that laptop, is that it was a hardware defect and the laptop needed to be RMA'd. ASUS wouldn't do anything for mine though despite explaining the issue to them and showing it happening on Windows.
Either way, I now own a Framework 16 with a 7000 series GPU and am very happy :)
